Hi Larry, I have a machine where one head has a faulty Z servomotor, and another head has a defective aligner. In the meantime that I procure the required spare parts, what part is easier to swap in order to have at least one head productive? Eve

IR reflow worked well for leaded solders but is not recommended for lead free reflow soldering. Your darker components (ICs) absorb more heat from IR than lighter colored ones (Rs & Cs). When getting all solder joints up to the proper lead free pea

Europlacer iineo well worth a look.. total flexibility and capabilities... I would recommend that anything you get should have the force feedback in the placement head...critical going forward aj

I am not a quad feeder mechanic but I woud assume your worst ones are dirty with sticking parts or have worn out parts. Perhaps Scott Heck could help you with parts, scotheck@aol.com I know he rebuilds older factory feeders to work with 0402s and 02

Hello everyone, I am curious what do you think about stencil type and apperture design for better release on small appertures. I have a PCB with bunch of BGAs with small appertures. We tried with Nikel stencil using DEK's special non stick material

Use a standard that everyone will recognize. If you say, "The solderability test was performed in accordance with ANSI/J-STD-002 'Solderabiility Tests for Component Leads, Terminations, Lugs, Terminals and Wires'” [ipc.org/TOC/J-STD-002C.pdf ], every

I had this problem once a loooooooong time ago with a 248 that was at my previous place of employment. If I remember correctly, my issue was caused by a set screw on the drive gear that had worked itself loose. My issue was stright forward and quickl

If anyone still disagrees with you point, out that the "of each" refers to individual pads. If the 95% refered to 95% of the pads it would not have said "of each". Also someone correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this standard to do with solderabilit

It is a very interesting thought. However, teach all positions on the PCB might be challenging if you don't have them in the file. I think it is a smart think for OEMs as they would have all the resources to control their files. For CEM I don't see i

I have been told that stencil nano-coatings are rain-x in a different container. I guess I half believed it until I opened up a sample the other day. It smells EXCACTLY like rain-x. For those of you that have never smelled rain-x it has a very distin
